Where Bridgeview’s numbers come from

Averages over 30 years, not a forecast.

  • Normals: the 1991–2020 normals from ECCC for Pitt Meadows, its nearest location with complete temperatures.
  • Other locations: ECCC blanks a month that fails its completeness rule, so the precipitation or snowfall here comes from the next location with all twelve months.
  • Comparisons: all Canadian places of 2,500 or more except city totals and reserves, each read the same way.
  • Not on this page: hours of sunshine, missing from the 1991–2020 normals, and a height correction: the town has no elevation on file.
